| Type | Description |
|--------|----------|
| [endian](bit-enum.md) | Specifies the endianness of scalar types. |
| [`endian`](bit-enum.md) | Specifies the endianness of scalar types. |

### Functions

| Function | Description |
|-----|-----|
|[bit_cast](bit-functions.md#bit_cast) | Reinterpret the object representation from one type to another. |
|[bit_ceil](bit-functions.md#bit_ceil) | Find the smallest power of two greater than or equal to a value. |
|[bit_floor](bit-functions.md#bit_floor) | Find the largest integral power of two not greater than a value. |
|[bit_width](bit-functions.md#bit_width) | Find the smallest number of bits needed to represent a value. |
|[countl_zero](bit-functions.md#countl_zero) | Count the number of consecutive bits set to zero, starting from the most significant bit. |
|[countl_one](bit-functions.md#countl_one) | Count the number of consecutive bits set to one, starting from the most significant bit. |
|[countr_zero](bit-functions.md#countr_zero) | Count the number of consecutive bits set to zero, starting from the least significant bit. |
|[countr_one](bit-functions.md#countl_one) | Count the number of consecutive bits set to one, starting from the least significant bit. |
|[has_single_bit](bit-functions.md#has_single_bit) | Check if a value has only a single bit set to one. This is the same as testing whether a value is a power of two. |
|[popcount](bit-functions.md#popcount) | Count the number of bits set to one. |
|[rotl](bit-functions.md#rotl) | Compute the result of a bitwise left-rotation. |
|[rotr](bit-functions.md#rotr) | Compute the result of a bitwise right-rotation. |
